Christian Texts and History • Re: Flaw with Marcion priority theory?

Marcion theory has first gospel c. 140 CE when Marcion put together his *ev.

I'm not sure we can be sure of that date.
And we can't be sure Marcion wrote the *ev (though I think Markus Vinzent's reasons for thinking he did are cogent).

I don't think we can be sure when gMark was written, either.

I think it's likely that the author of gMark knew and indeed 'used' some or many of the Pauline epistles.

Yet our first knowledge of Paul is aligned with Marcion.

So many discrepancies and gaps in associations of these and other seemingly key early Christian texts.
